another Mojo Monday 172!

Well, like I said in my last post (where you can also see the sketch), I had some more ideas for the latest Mojo Monday challenge!  This card took me way longer than I had planned, mostly because I struggled with getting the little flower-in-the-circle just right (started off with a whole different flower stamp, in fact!).  But I'm happy with the end result.


The flower is Verve - Many Blessings, which I colored with Copics and paper pieced and popped up the inner row of petals, and also added a bit of Glossy Accents to the center.  The butterfly is from PTI's Love Lives Here, both the stamp and the coordinating die on the smaller one, and the larger one is the Signature Series butterfly die.  The leaves are Turning a New Leaf, which I stamped and then hand-cut.  Sentiment is Make a Wish, and I added an inside sentiment from the same set.

Thanks for looking!
